On Friday, April 28th, 2023, it’s high noon at the Chevrolet dealership I co-own. We’re eager to sell our stock of Silverados this month, offering a generous $8,000 discount off the MSRP for 2023 models. Our current pipeline comprises approximately 4,000 leads.

With a conventional CRM system, it would take our modest sales team days to contact all these potential customers. However, with TECOBI, we managed to reach them in under 20 minutes via text message. Our outreach transformed a quiet showroom into a bustling hub, as our sales team is now swamped with 147 engaged customers. Presently, every salesperson at our dealership is on the phone discussing the 2023 Silverado.

Below are just a few examples of the replies we got to a text message we sent out to our working pipeline.

TECOBI’s text messaging approach is significantly more efficient than other follow-up methods in the automotive industry. It enables dealerships to transition from inactivity to having every salesperson engaged with a customer in a remarkably short time.

As the economy begins to stabilize and sales start to decelerate, it’s crucial for dealerships to maximize every opportunity and stay ahead of the competition. With limited inventory coming off the production line, it’s essential to have a system in place that allows for rapid vehicle turnover to increase allocation.

TECOBI is the solution! There’s no need for your sales team to spend time making calls to unresponsive customers and leaving countless voicemails. Instead, simply press a button and watch your dealership come to life!
